The city of Delft in the Netherlands is the inspiration for this circular yoke pullover. Worked with a classic delft blue and lt. grey pattern, it is soft, luxurious, and gorgeous. Grab your skates and let’s go!

This pullover is worked from the top down, stranded, and in the round. Due to the natural stretch of alpaca, this sweater is worked on small needles at a tight gauge. There is some waist shaping to create a fitted garment and colour stranding at the yoke, and bottom edges. If you have a smaller bust, you may need to decrease more sts, after you have completed the yoke and/or go down needles sizes, omit underarm CO, etc. As one test knitter wrote (and you can see on the model) it has an hourglass shape for a larger bust.
